Looks like fun. As far as I know, there's nothing wrong with running the best builds in the metagame, if that's what you're implying.

When the best builds in the metagame consist of all paragons or all ritualist, like in this case, there is something wrong i'd say...

That was in the monthly tournament, and as we saw in the CT many top guilds are prepared to play gimmicks when real prizes are on the line, you'd be foolish not to run the most imbalanced build possible when they're real life prizes on the line imo.

The really sad thing about it is that guilds that can and do normally run balanced play imbalanced builds and it's just insta-win. The tourneys with real prizes are when it's easiest to see the most imbalanced stuff.

There will always be some teams that go above and beyond. Now, if every guild in the top 10 were running the SAME build, that would be cause for worry.. But even if the top few are gimmicks, they are DIFFERENT gimmicks. I really don't see the problem with them... Maybe the problem is that people are too focused on balanced builds?

A rank 1k guild won a silver cape. Not only that, a really shitty rank 1k guild.
When only 30 guilds care enough to show up, trash happens.
